Nacido el 8 de mayo de 1972 en Brisbane, Australia, Darren Stanley Hayes mostró interés por la música desde temprana edad. Durante su infancia y adolescencia, desarrolló una fuerte pasión por el canto y la composición. Sus primeros pasos en la música estuvieron influenciados por artistas de la talla de Michael Jackson y Madonna, quienes sirvieron como inspiración para su futuro en la industria musical.
La carrera de Hayes tomó un giro significativo en 1993 cuando conoció a Daniel Jones a través de un anuncio en una revista musical en busca de un vocalista. Este encuentro marcó el inicio de Savage Garden, un dúo que reescribiría la historia del pop de los años 90.
Tras una increíble trayectoria con Savage Garden, el dúo se disolvió en 2001. Sin embargo, esto no significó el fin de la carrera de Darren Hayes. En lugar de detenerse, decidió seguir su camino como solista, explorando nuevas facetas de su arte.
I have been angry for so long now
I let you know
Shoulda walked away when I was young
I let you go
I turned away but maybe I was wrong
I've been polishing blame for so long now
My pride enjoy
A bit tragedy never hurt somehow
This man become a boy
You take the blame but maybe I was wrong
Walk away now and be gone
You don't have to want to go on
I can see its killing you
You don't always have to be so strong for me
Every angel had dirty hands
Even Judas planned to just carry on
Just picking up the pieces
Of what lies behind those sorrowful lies
You can walk away
You have been silent for so long
I let the world now
I turned a bit of my pain into a song
And carried on
You took a bit of my shame but maybe that was wrong
Walk away now and be gone
You don't have to want to go on
Even when they're killing you
You don't always have to be so strong for me
Every angel had dirty hands
Even Judas planned to just carry on
Just picking up the pieces
Of what lies behind those sorrowful lies
You can walk away
Now and be strong
I know you can carry on
Walk away now and be gone
You don't have to want to carry
All the pain inside you
Cause the blood in me is the your blood every time I fall
Walk away now and be gone
Even when its killing you
You don't always have to be so strong for me
Walk away now and be gone
'Cause you know even Judas planned to just carry on
Just picking up the pieces
Of what lies behind those sorrowful lies
You can walk away
Now and be strong
You don't have to carry on
Walk away now and be strong
You don't have to want to go on
Walk away now and be strong
You don't have to want to go on
Walk away
Walk away now
Walk away now
Oh
You don't have to go on
You don't have to be strong
Walk away now
You can walk away
